I agree that having a dual charger is preferable to not having one. In big scheme of things additional 1500 does not matter but makes car more usable. With Tesla service centers in all major ciities, you have access to HPWC allowing you to charge at higher rate.

Count me in

In two months I have drive. 3800 miles. I have 336 wh/mi in south Florida area (Ft. Lauderdale near Miami)

Sorry to hear about it. Things will get back to what it was, soon

Scott: you are like me. I also changed my battery to 85 after confirming after hearing so much here and am very happy with change.

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=768006143231768&set=pcb.551419384978018&type=1&theater I am bringing back one of the old threads. When I was ordering Tesla, I was sure I did not need 85 kWh and was willing to even forego Supercharger as I have an Odyssey and I thought let me use that for...

Congrats!!! Please do add Tech Pkg as suggested by others. Also please seriously consider upgrading to. 85 kWh battery. Parking sensors is another great feature to add. This will add 12k to the cost but you don't buy Model S every day.

Awesome news OP. I never had concerns about it and am glad it happened this way. I hope you join Tesla family sooner than later. I am in South Florida and will gladly join you for a beer some time.

I believe if you can't afford 85 with options you like, you can't afford even 60. Please do take a look at the finances thoroughly. 85 will make car much more usable. If anyone says that he can save money by using ice car on long drives, I agree. Buying Tesla is not for saving money. Putting 8k...

Our prayers are with little angel and you! Things will turn out perfect. Cheers, Amit

Awesome news!!! Tesla Grin needs to be shared with all of us!!!!

That should not be a problem at all. Please escalate to higher ups and they will address it. We just wanted you to lose nothing:-)

Tax credit is not going anywhere. OP can pass it on to next guy. Real killer is sales tax which will be accessed two times and OP should look into if there is a way to avoid it second time legally.

I love black. However there is no point in asking others about the best color combination. There is a nice table giving combination of your favorite ice cream flavor and color. If you like coffee, green color is best. Chocolate flavor warrants red and Vanilla implies silver. So if you post your...

I am pretty sure you will get 2.5 k back. If you can 't get financing, you will get everything back . If your reason to cancel is financial , you can get entire deposit back since you can 't get financing. Also your configuration is a very popular one and you can make money flipping it. Need to...

This will be great Larry. I wonder when will this show on the map. Any news about when is Tampa SC getting operational.

Mine too

You can see it in main console as well if you select controls and then trip.

Excellent config

Congrats!! Wait time has really come down. Great news for all.

I had a great experience with Autonation. They gave the quote online. For inspection they gave address of a facility. I told them I am busy and will appreciate a visit. They came to my home and inspected the car. Then when I picked Stela, I dropped my old car at Tesla service center and that was...

Hi islandbayy, what does P120 mean in your signature? Congratulations on adding twin chargers and I am sure having fast charging capability will be of help at sometime in future. Other thing I recommend all is to have extension cords and adapters so that you can charge from any plug (especially...

Sorry to hear this. It will have a happy ending and will be over.

I am only 5' 4". I got panoramic roof. Even if you don't open it, when you look up, it is all glass and view is truly panoramic. I will strongly recommend Panoramic roof. It is way different from typical sun roofs. Cheers, Amit

Just affirming that it is indeed normal. Once preferred month is gone, you can't change on your own. If some one wants to change, he can still make a call and depending on where he is, it can still be changed. Bear in mind that for US deliveries car goes in production around 2 weeks before the...

My other vehicle is 2007 Honda Odyssey with 80K miles on it. I retired 2000 Nissan Altima with 148K miles. I earlier had Honda Accord which lasted 9 years & 160 K miles but was totaled in an accident. So first time I am switching from Japanese cars to an American car.

Friends, I am delighted to let all of you know that I got my black beauty on 5-Mar. I named her Stela. I have a feeling that it is most common name for Tesla since it is re-ordering of the TESLA letters. It is a delight to drive it. In fact there are two types of persons. One who drive Tesla...

Since folks don't come back with the final price, these discussions inform folks as to what they should look for in coming up with the price. This warns buyers of scams and rip offs as well.

Shows ignorance of OP. no one here or at tesla forum will buy at a premium. Only uninformed folks will buy at this price. When you buy from a private party, you will pay less than an inventory car because of associated risks. This includeing tax credit in calculation.

Around four weeks after confirmation, DS contacted me. - - - Updated - - - http://www.teslamotors.com/forum/forums/my-journey-own-tesla BTW I am tracking my entire timeline at above thread in case you are interested.

GDH: you may have priced it fairly. i will like if folks who put their cars on sale at the forum, come back and say at what price sale went through. This will give a reality check to sellers who think they command insane premium by selling used Teslas.

Things are moving fast. Status changed to production complete on 27-feb. I received a call saying they will prepone delivery to 5-mar from 10 Mar. Great to share with you all. Yay!!!!!!!!

Thanks Massx1317 for number analysis. If inventory vehicle is at 90 k, private sale has to be at a lower price in view of inherent risks of buying from an individual. No one should pay more than 80k for it. Now you may always find an uninformed buyer.

Please update my row with below information: Production start 24-Feb, Production Complete: 27-Feb, Delivery Date pulled to 5-Mar (Original was 10-Mar) - - - Updated - - - Please update my row with this information: Production start: 24-Feb, Production Complete: 27-Feb Delivery date: 5-Mar...

Awesome news on both fronts. Even Orlando should have a SC. Such a big tourist destination has to have it for local travel.

I am very happy for you Islandbayy that things are coming back to normal now. It is an experience all of us will like to avoid and details will just make us aware about the issues. Of course you will be telling the gory details about how it happened like this and should you have done anything...

Best wishes and I am confident it will turn out good. I know it sucks and disrupts your plans. Once it is all over and has a happy ending, it will make you a more experienced and of course this will be a memorable night. Again best wishes and keep us updated.

Thanks Hybris.

What is this cable used for? Can you post a link to buy it? I am assuming I may need it as well.

Thanks friends

Yes, from pure safety perspective, having the crumble zone (that is not the reinforced one which is added for third row) is better. Think about it like this. Say you are holding a steel rod at your back and some one hits the steel rod. You are holding a plastic rod and someone hits the plastic...

Status changed today to "In Production The Tesla Factory is building your Model S" Looks like I am all set for 10-Mar delivery. Yay!!!!!! As a recap, order was confirmed on 20-Dec and it was changed two times after the confirmation. Delivery is scheduled for 10-Mar.:biggrin:

I am picking on 10 Mar and no invoice yet

I thought that 60 was good for me and finalized on 60. However so many folks were recommending to go for 85 that I called Tesla and upgraded to 85. I will find out if indeed I do drives which are easier in 85 compared to 60 and update in few months . For me extra 10k was not financial stretch...

There are two shifts every day and factory runs 5 days a week. There current capacity is 100-150 cars a day.

Very nice

My delivery is scheduled for 10 Mar. I have not heard anything else. I have to find out if there is any change.

Gorgeous

My visit went well on 13-Feb. It is indeed an amazing factory. So impressive to see how Kuka robots make more than 50% of the car. Whole car gets assembled in 3-4 days. Most time is taken in painting. One other interesting thing was that before shipping cars to EU they disassemble (take out the...

Happy birthday and congrats !!
